Miami, Fla., March 21.-The Miami
board of trade held a special meeting on
the evening of the 20th, to take some ac-
tion relative to the peonage prosecutions
by which the agents of the Florida East
Coast railway are now being annoyed. A
clipping taken from the New York Herald,
in reference to this outrage was read and
then the matter was opened for discussion.
W. W. Prout, the president of .the board
of trade, presided at the meeting and in
his explanation why the meeting was call-
ed, said in substance, "that in his opinion
the time had come when it was the duty
of .the citizens of Miami, to defend the
charges made against the Florida East
Coast Railway, and to give them thlir
moral support, refuting the charges that
the laborers on the extension of the Flor-
ida Fast Coast railway are being treated
unfairly, or held in bondage against their
will
The meeting was addressed by T. V.
Moors, Hon. J. W. Watson, representative-
elect in the legislature, A. L Keller of
tue Keller Grocery Company, Alderman J.
I. Wilson, E. B. Douglass, proprietor of the
Ideal Dry Goods Stores, Col. E. T. Bying-
ton, editor of the Morning News, and
others.
After the discussion the following reso-
lutions were adopted :"Whereas, Infor-
mation has been received through the pub-
lic press that the United States Court in
New York State is prosecuting or endeav-
oring to prosecute men engaged in an
einort to secure laborers for the comple-
tion of the Florida East Coast Railway
extension, from Miami to Key West, un-
der the charge of peonage; and,
Whereas, the conditions now existing,
and heretofore existing, in prosecuting the
work of the extension, do not in any way
warrant the charge of peonage; and,
Whereas, the State of Florida is abun-
dantly able to defend all its citizens with-
in its precincts from peonage practice and,
Whereas, the citizens of said State arc
amply able to uphold and enforce its laws
regarding peonage without federal assist-
ance or interference, especially from fede-
ral officers who are located in another
State, therefore be it
Resolved, 1-That the Miami Board of
Trade unanimously condemn the prosec'u-
tion in New York of cases from which evi-
dence therein can only be obtained in
this State.
Resolved, 2--That the Miami Board of
Trade, being situated in close proximity
with the work of the extension, finds no
basis for even charges of peonage.
Resolved, 3-That a copy of these reso-
lutions be sent by the secretary of this
body to the Associated Press, and a copy
to the attorneys, both prosecuting and de-
fending the ease."
After reading of these resolutions, an-
other discussion was held and it was de-
termined that the board would adopt still

further resolutions of a broader scope, go-
ing specifically into the matter of alleged
peonage, not only at Key West extension,
but in the State, and condemning the
charges be prepared by a committee to
be appointed by the president. These will
be in addition to the resolutions adopted
*and will be published broadcast for the
information of the public at large.
There are no people in any section of the
United States, who are so familiar with
the extension work and the treatment ot
the employes, as the people of Miami, and
the citizens of Miami are not only ready
but anxious to publish to the world the
utter falsity of the charges of peonage in
any form along the line of the extension.
The officials of Miami have had their
experience with many of the laborers who
have been brought here to work on the
extension and know of their utter unre-
liability. The agent for the East Coast
Railway in New York has not been able
to secure at all times the choicest class (;f
laborers for this work, which has resulted
in the bringing south many of the most
depraved classes and it is largely this class
who have made the charges against the
employees of the company.
Never in the history of railroad building
has those who have had charge of thl
work been put to so much expense andl
trouble to make their employes comfotia-
ble as has the East Coast Railway Conm-
Ipany.
Field hospitals, m charge of competent
physicians, have been established along
the line of the work for those who were
temporarily ill. At Miami, one of the
best and most modern hospitals has been
established and maintained for those who
were seriously ill or for any of the em-
;loyes who met with accidents. Every
possible convenience has been furnished
t.e laborers fo their comfort, and the bert
of food has been served.
Among the thousands of iaoorers who
have been brought south for this work
th re are many who are of the idle class,
and many who are addicted to the use cf
liquor. This class when pay day comes
iouild come to Miami, spend their earn-
inlgs for whiskey and would wind up in
Ihe lockup. They had spent their last
'ollar. had no money or friends to pay
th.ir fines, which resulted in their being
sei to the street gang, then the cry of
peonage was heard. When a laborer was
lissatisfied and wished to return north
frmi the extension work, he was permitted
to come to Miami on any of the exten-
sion boats. The people of Miami are thor-
SI.tIly aroused over what is considered an
overt act on the part of those who are
pro-eciuting the agents of the Florida
Fast Coast Railway on the charge of
1: onage, and the forthcoming resolutions
of the Miami Board of Trade, will be a
stinging rebuke to those who are engaged
in prosecuting these agents.

Washington, March 22.-Attorney Gen-
eral Bonaparte has sent to President
Ri;sevelt a communication containing an-
swers to various quespaons affecting the
administration of the immigration laws
propounded by Gov. Ansel, of South Caro-
lina. The attorney general upholds the
legality of a State advertising its induce-
nents to immigration, including a state-
inenr of prevailing wages, and upholds the
egalityy of introduction of immigrants,
\where they are otherwise qualified, and
nad not been solicited or encouraged ex-
celt by payment of their passage front
t,,e State's public funds. The State's ac-
ceptance of contributions to the immigra-
tion department funds and advertisement
o. its inducements therewith, and its pre-
payment of the passage of aliens would
not exclude the immigrants, but might
tender liable to the law the parties con-
tiibuting the money. All these are with
,l.e proviso that no agreement or contract
.e entered into. With the changes made
.i the new law, aliens are excluded when
-olicited by promises or offers, even when
there is no contract or agreement, and
while payment of immigrants' passage
fromn State public funds is not barred, its
iaymient with funds contributed by any
society or association makes the immi-
grants liable to exclusion. The prohibi-
tion does not apply to contributions of
Passage money by individuals as such.
The governor's letter to the president
tears date of March 16.
The questions are the outcome of the
recent conference held at the White House
Letaween the president, Attorney General
lBcnaparte and South Carolina officials,
hlien an opinion of the attorney general
regarding the matter of assisted immigra-
tion was under consideration. Three of
the governor's questions answered by the
attorney general relate to the existing
law, and the fourth to the new law of
February 20 last, which becomes operative
IJuly 1.
She first question asked, whether it is
a violation of the immigration law in force
up to the time of the taking effect of the
act of February 20, for a State, acting
through its officers, to advertise its in-
dutements and publish abroad the scale
of wages prevailing within its borders,
provided no contract or agreement is en-
tered into. In his answer the attorney
general, after quoting various sections of
the existing law, says:
"These provisions contain substantially
all the law in force at the present time,
and until the act approved February" 20,
1907, shall become effective in accordance
wih its terms, that can be material to de-
termine the answer to the foregoing first
question, and I therefore reply that it is

lawful for a State to advertise its induce-
ments to immigrants and to state, as part
of such advertisement, the scale of wages
generally prevailing within its territory, it
ueing my understanding of the question
that such advertisements be limited to
setting forth the inducements offered by
conditions prevailing within the State to
immigrants, leaving the said immigrants
to draw their own conclusions from such
advertisements to the advisability of
coming to the said State."
-While the parties providing the money
for the publication of the advertisements
might be," continues the attorney general,
"in my opinion, liable to the penalties im-
posed by section 5, df the present law,
the immigrants themselves, upon the hy-
pothesis of the third question could not
be excluded."
.The fourth question submitted by Gov.
Ansel was:
"Will the answers to the foregoisg ques-
tions be materially different after the
taking effect of the act approved the 20th
of February, 1907, and if different, in what
respect?"
This question Attorney General Bona-
parte says must be answered in the affirm-
ati\e. He refers to the provisions of sec-
tion 2 of the new act which specifies what
classes of aliens shall be excluded from
this country and says:
"These provisions change the law in two
particulars; in the first place aliens solic-
ited or induced to migrate by reason of
offers, or promises, even when there is no
contract of employment, will be excluded
after this act taffes effect. At present, al-
though their importation is unlawful and
subjects the parties responsible for it to
punishment, the aliens themselves are al-
lowed to enter. Secondly, the person
whose passage money is paid by another
must be prepared to show, not merely that
he does not come within any of the cate-
gories of immigrants to be excluded, but
also that his passage was not paid by a
corporation, an association, a society, a
municipality or a foreign government; and
this provision against such payment by
any of the agencies mentioned is effective
whether the payment be made directly or
indirectly.
"While, therefore, the payment of the
passage money of such immigrants by a
State with its public funds is not pro-
hitited, its payment with funds contrib-
uted by any society or association renders
the immigrant liable to exclusion, al-
though the payment may be made through
tie agency of the State or its offers and
although the immigrant would otherwise
Le entitled to admissions. The ame pro-
hibition, however does not extend to the
payment of the panapa s y by iadviii-

Sound and the New England coast. The
line purchased was known as the Winsor
line, from the name of its president, Mr.
Alfred Winsor, of Boston.
It is stated that the Merchants & Mlin-
ers' Transportation Co. is by the deal
strengthened in its position in conducting
its coastwise transportation, but it will
not result in any official changes, and the
directors will continue unchanged. It
will still be a Baltimore company, and it,
operations will continue as they have been
conducted from this city. The president
is Mr. Joseph ('. Whitney, of Baltimore,
who has grown up in the service from
boyhood, and who last July succeeded Mr.
Michael Jenkins as executive. The conm-
pany, it is stated, is in a strong financial
position, and has a bonded debt of only
$300,000. It pays 8 per cent annual divi-
dends. It is not yet stated how much
Sstock will be issued to close the deal.
The par is $100, but it has recently sold
in the market at $235. There has been
talk to the effect that the company would
establish a steamer line to Jacksonville,
A -a., but no such announcement has yet
been made. The directors of the Mer-
chants & Miners are Michael Jenkins, N.
W. James, W. Kennedy Cromwell and De-
catur H. Miller, Jr., all of Baltimore, and
E. P. Whitney, of Boston.

A GOOD ROADS BILL.

For Legislatue, Suggested by State Asso-
ciaties of County Commiaioners.
Orlando, March 23.-The State Associa-
tion of County Commissioners of the State
has done much valuable work for good
roads in the State: It has a standing
committee on legislation for good roads,
and last November a majority of the com-
mittee met in Orlando to consider needed
legislation. The members present were:
H. H. Dickson, the chairman of the county
board of commissioners; W. L. Palmer and
H. K. Fuller. This majority agreed on tihe
main features of a bill to be submitted to
the legislature soon to convene. The
prominent provsiions are as follows:
First-The creation of a State commis-
sion of three competent and skilled men
who shall be known as the State Road
Commissioners. The state authorities
shall give control of all able-bodied con-
victs to these State road commissioners
for building State roads. The State re-
tains absolute control of the convicts, reg-
ulates their work, protects their health,
insures humane treatment and proper pro-
tection.
Second-The bill provides for employ-
ment of a competent State engineer, and
the location and building of State roads,
these State roads shall run east, south,
north and west through the State.
Third-Provisions are made by which
counties not traversed by the State roads
shall, if they desire, have aid by the
rtate convicts in constructing county roads
connecting with the State roads.
Fourth-The bill also provides for es-
tablishing a State farm for disabled con-
victs.
The bill works the gradual but sure
acolishment of the present convict lease
system. It puts the road question to the
front, and makes it the pa-amount busi-
ness question of the State. It takes the
convicts out of politics, and removes them
frcm competition with free labor. It pro-
vides for fair and humane treatment of
the convicts at all times, shuts out the
speculation in leasing them and makes
abuses impossible.

The committee will submit their sugges-
tions to the legislature along with other
bills on the subject of good roads. It will
I.e observed the suggested bill is i: some
features along the lines of Mac\Villiaiis"
1ill.
The State Association of County (o11-
ni:s-ioners will, it is believed, stand by
Itn sugo-,tted legislation. but are not par-
ticular as to details thought necessary to
a complish the main objects of the bill.
The entire committee was to convene
and consider the details of the proposed
bill, but it is thought that this will be
impossible before the legislature convenes,
out the committee will meet in Tallahas-
see early in April. The following gentle-
men compose the committee appointed by
the State association: H. II. Buckman,
W. L. Palmer, Syd L. Carter. H. K. Ful-
ler and J. R. Steward.

JACKSONVILLE TALKS TO TAMPA.

Tampa, March 21.-A most gratifying
interchange of initial telephonic messages
between Tampa and Jacksonville was had
at the office of Chief of Police Walker in
the city hall yesterday morning about 11
o'clock. It was the occasion of the com-
pletion of the long distance service of the
Southern Bell Telephone companyy bI-
tween this city and the State's metropolis.
Manager Brorein, of the Peninsular Tel-
ephone Company, which will handle the
long distance business at this end of the
line, had invited the mayor and other city
officials, together with the presidents of
the board of trade and chamber of com-
merce, and newspaper men to be present
at the opening of the connection wli
.Jacksonville, and these officials \sith mein-
hers of the local press, were interesteIl
and highly gratified witnesses to the ef-
fective service inaugurated.
The first to test the new service was
Mayor William H. Frecker, who called out
through the transmitter in the chief's of-
flee, "This is the may or of Tampa. I
wish to extend congratulations to the city
of Jacksonville on being brought into tele-
phone connection with the most progres-
sive city in the United States, Tampa."
Manager Bragg, of the Jacksonville of-
fice of the telephone con.pany resp, ndcl.
his voice being clearly and distinctly heard
by Mayor Frecker, who was much pleased
over the distinct manner in which the re-
sponse came over the 212 miles of wire.
President W. R. Fuller, of the board of
trade and Max P. Moritz, vice-president of
the chamber of commerce, followed with
congratulatory phone messages to Jack-
sonville and Chief of Police Walker sent a
message of congratulation to the chief of
police of tile sister city, in thie north end
of the State, with the e-xpressed hope ard
belief that tile new service would be pro
moti\v of even greater expedition in the
(al:turing of criminals.
lAiter in the day Mayor Flrecker ,,ecure.i
the far of Mayor Baker, and the Jackson-
ville end of the phone service and re-
peated his congratulations. The local
new spaper offices were a l-o plu in com--
lmunicatien with the Jacksonville news-
pape:s. and held congratulatory convers.a-
tion, with them. The new service is a
most effective one and promises to be of
vast benefit in promoting the commercial
relations between the two cities.

Cotton Manufacturers Demanded Change
in Present Methods.
Charlotte. N. C.. March 21.-Leading cot-
ton manufacturers of the two Carolinas
met here this afternoon to take action re-
garding existing evils in the methods of
shipping cotton from the Mississippi delta
to this section.
The complaint of the mill men, stated
briefly, is that they receive a bill of lad-
ing with draft attached, for cotton that
they order from the South, and it is neces-
sary to pay this draft at sight. In the
meantime the railroads, the mill men
claim, take their own time about shipping
this cotton, and it is sometimes weeks be-
fore the delivery of the goods.
The mill men want to change things so
tnt when a bill of lading is made out it
Contain the car number and lettering
so that the consignee will know that this
cotton has been loaded, and will be in a
position to have shipments hurried up. In
a nutshell, the mill men do not want to
pay for goods that are held back for ship-
ment, until they know that the cotton has
been loaded and is in the hands of the
railroad.
Strong resolutions were adopted in
which the spinnrs represented agreed 'to
decline to honor drafts unless accompanied
by hills of lading covering cotton actually
in cars, containing car numbers, said ear
numbers coverlag cars actually holding
cott-a represeted in the bill of lading.
The resolutions e4o upon the various as-

sociations of cotton manufacturers of the
country to stand by the southern spinners
in this action.

makes some interesting references to the
water-power-electrical plant which the
Southern Power Co. of Charlotte, N. C.,
has been building. It states that water
was turned through the gates on March
11, and summarizes further facts as fol-
lows:
"The company began construction in
August, 1905. It took eight months to
finish the dam at Mountain Island and
one year on the concrete wall at the
power-house. The dam at the power-
house is 10 feet wide at the top, 80 feet
wide at the base and 106 feet high. It is
650 feet long from hill to hill There are
100.000 cubic yards of masonry in both
walls. In the power-house are two direct-
current generators and eight alternating-
current generators and 40,000 horse-power
will be developed. Mr. W. S. Lee, Jr.,
vice-president and chief engineer of the
company, expects to be ready to deliver
power inside of two weeks. The power
will conveyed on a tower line."

"'Live Oak, when connected thus with
deep water, will be able to secure a decent
freight rate, which will mean a great deal
for her business men. Much of her freight
at present is shipped to Jacksonville and
then reshipped in order to save money by
getting the Jacksonville rate from the
markets. She is also buying stuff south,
in the markets at New Orleans, etc., and
having it shipped by boat up the Suwan-
nee river to Wilmarth on the Florida Rail-
way near Live Oak. So you see how much
the new road is going to mean to u
Wholesale freight rates, I am told, when
there is direct connection by rail with the
boats, are very little higher for 100 miles
inland than for the port itself."
Capt. Hillman' Liberality.
In speaking of Live Oak's business men,
-Mr. Ridley said: "We have a set of men
in Live Oak who, for broad-minded, big-
hearted and level-headed mpen, are not sur-
passed in Floridai. I noted with pleasure
your reference to Capt. Hillman and his
magnificent gift to the Salvation Army
building. Well, that is just like Hillman.
He never does things by halvs, Ha has

a big head and heart and he thinks big
thoughts and does big things in a big way.
He has meant much to the life and prog-
ress of our city. No matter what is pro-
posed, if it looks to the public good, we
put Hillman down at the head of the list
as one of our largest donors or stock-
holders. The gift referred to illustrates
the man's unselfish spirit.
Live Young Live Oak Mea.
"And do you know, Live Oak is getting
some fine advertising from her public-
spirited and philanthropic citizens. Up to
S a year or two ago they were all taken up
with making money, but now some of
them are engaged in spending it. We have
several young men who will be capitalists
inside the next five years if fortune does
not reverse itself on them. Take our
man, C. H. Brown, only a young fellow,
but one of the finest business men in any
man's town. Then there is J. B. Barton,
Wiley Taylor, C. B. McLeod, Lee Byrd and
others. All these men are making money
and making it fast. With a comparatively
small investment one of them told me a
few days ago that he cleared $25,000 last
year on turpentine alone. And thus runs
the story. Give us a freight rate and we
will show you a volume of business the
like of which has not been seen in any
eILy of similar size.
"I also notice that since I left home
there has been quite a bit of trading going
on among the moneyed men of Live Oak
themselves. I see where J. B. Barton and
C. B. McLeod have sold one of their tur-
pentine farms near Citra to Wiley Taylor,
all of Live Oak, for 600,000. Wiley has
been restless for several months trying to
get back in the business. He is quite a
young man, but has spent almost all his
business life, up-to-date, in turpentine and
naval stores operations. At present prices
Wiley bids fair to make quite a little
money. He is a fine fellow and deserves
success."-Times-Union.

RAILROAD PROBLEMS OF THE DAY.

Southern Railway President Speaks on
Relation of the Railroads and the
People and the Government.
Atlanta, March 19.-At the annual din-
ner of the Atlanta Chamnler of Cemmereo
tonight. Fre-ident AW. W. Finley of the
Southern Railway. who was one of the
principal speakers, devoted his remarks
entirely to the relations between the rail-
roads, on the onehand, and the people and
the State and national governments on the
other hand. Without referring to any spe-
cific action by congress or the State legis-
latures. Mr. Finley indicated his belief
that the present trend of legislation en-
dangers the prosperity of the railroads and
of the country alike. Mr. Finley said it
had always been the desire of the railways
to maintain cordial relations with the peo-
ple along their lines and that the railways
must cultivate the good will and co-opera-
tion of the public by the adoption and pro-
mulgation of economically and commercial-
ly sound principles in the conduct of their
business. Mr. Finley reviewed the prog-
ress of the South and said that its press-
ing need today is for better and more ex-
tensive transportation facilities.
New Capital Required.
"If the railways are to secure the large
amounts of new capital required to enable
then to meet the rapidly increasing de-
mand for. their services," he said, "their
credit nlust be such as to assure investors
of i reasonable return upon their money.
The South now has rates that enable the
Southern producers to market their prod-

OUR CONGRATULATIONS.
The Record congratulates two well-
known turpentine men, in particular, this
week. One of them is Mr. J. W. Ward,
Jr., of Floral City; the other is Captain
W. J. Hillman, of Live Oak. We congrat-
ulate Mr. Ward for deciding to make Jack-
sonville his home. He has bought the
handsome Zapf residence, in Riverside,and
will soon move his interesting family here.
Captain Hillman we congratulate for
starting off the Salvation Army building
in Jacksonville with a donation of $2,500.
Captain Hillman's virtues are many, and
one of them is his liberality in good
causes.

during the coming session, as Senator H.
H. Buckman in his successful campaign,
declared that lie would urge no changes
in the charter unless the people at a
special election should recommend them.
No such election has been proposed, and
the people seem to be satisfied with the
present form of government under which
Jacksonville has had marvelous prosperity.
Harmonious Delegation.
Jacksonville's delegation are personal
friends and it is generally understood
that they will work harmoniously togeth-
er on all matters of State. Representa-
tive Farris' hobby is good roads, and he
has a bill which he believes will pass.
Next to the good roads proposition the
people are anxious for amendments to the
primary, which will allow candidates to
run with less expense. The army of
grafters and political bums is now the
great obstacle, and aspirants for office in
most cases have bad to spend more money
than the offices sought for pay.
Broaard's Coming Message.
Governor Broward has bien busy on
his message to the Legislature, but what
it will contain no one dares venture to
assert. The Governor will still cling to
his Everglades scheme, and he also urges
good roads, and more temperance legis-
lation. It is not known whether or not
he will still make a fight for State life
insurance, a measure which met with op-
position during the last session. Brow-
ard's friends are not sure that both
branches of the Legislature will be in har-
mony with him. In fact, it is believed
that his political opponents will organize
the Senate, but the majority will be small.
The administration forces are also not
so sure as to the control of the House,
as they have not yet settled on a speaker
for this body.
However, which ever way the "cat
jumps" the next Legislature will be a
most interesting one, and in a few days
the machinery will all be in motion.

SOUTH MISSISSIPPI LUMBERMEN.
The South Mississippi Lumbermen's As-
sociation met at Hattiesburg, Miss.. on

especially to the lumber industry in Mis-
sippi. Secretary W. C. Rodgers made his

Jacksonville Development Company Buys
a Beautiful Suburb There.
The Ocala Banner, of Thursday, has the
following to say of the development work
undertaken in Ocala by the Jacksonville
Development Company:
James A. Holloman, treasurer and gen-
eral manager of the Jacksonville Develop-
ment Company, was in the city yesterday,
accompanied by Roland Woodward, the
company's engineer, and J. W. Edmnond-
son, superintendent of the company's field
force. These gentlemen were making the
preliminary survey and locating streets.
etc.. in their beautiful sub-division in this
city which will be known as Ocala
Heights. This property, which is on Lake
Weir avenue, inside of the city limits, is
decidedly the most attractive residential
vacant property in the city, and with a
live, progressive firm like the Jacksonville
Development Company behind it, with
plenty of capital to develop along high
lines, there is no doubt that the property
will be eagerly sought for as soon as
placed on the market.
In speaking of his company's entering
the city, Mr. Holloman made the follow-
ing statement to a reporter of the Ocala
Banner: "Our property, which we call
(h*ala Heights, is inside the city limits,
situated on the west side of Earle street,
*-r Lake Weir avenue, as I hear it more
frequently termed. We have only about
100 lots and we shall develop along the
highest possible lines. The streets will be
properly graded and tile or cement side-
walks will be laid in front of every lot.
Ornamental shade trees, possibly palms,
will he set out on both sides of every
street, and the property parked and beau-
tified to make it an ideal residence sec-
tion. The city water extends now to
within two blocks and we shall at once
make an effort to carry it right to the
properly. We do not expect to get this
on the market until the latter part of
April, although our street force will be :it
work in the next week. All the lots in
(Oala Heights will be large, with an alley
in the rear. and as you probably know,
this property, is exceptionally high, al-
most overlooking the city, as a matter of
fact. We shall sell the few lots we have

at reasonable prices and on easy terms,
and shall sell them quietly. employing
only the most dignified, husiness-like
- methods. The Jacksonville Development
( company does not operate free gift sales,
*r use other- fictitious methods in its op-
erations. It quietly and conservatively in-
vests its money where others can afford
to invest, and it sells its properties ab-
-olutely upon their merits, and in keeping
titll actual and not fictitious values. We

cets in widely separated home and for-
eign markets on such terms that they can
compete successfully with similar products
from other localities, but it has not the
means of moving those products to mar-
ket as promptly as is desirable. Every
shipper wants low rates, but when rates
are so low as to enable him to reach com-
petitive markets on terms at least as fav-
orable as those of his competitors, prompt
and efficient service becomes of more im-
S portance than rate reduction. The im-
perative need of the South today is im-
proved transportation service. I am sure
that the intelligent business men of this
section will agree with me that improved
facilities are more urgently needed than
any reduction in charges."
Need of Encouragement.
After referring to the public aid given
to railway construction in the early days,
.,r. Ainley said the great need in the
economic situation in the South today is
that the entire people of that section
should realize that the period of railroad
construction has not passed and that there
is now as much need of encouragement,
not financial, but of the moral favor and
support of the public as ever.
While approving the policy of improv-
ing rivers and harbors at public expense
Mr. Finley contrasted the attitude of the
public toward carriers by water and by
rail, pointing out that the former pays
nothing for his highways; that it is main-
tained and improved at public expense,
while the carrier by rail must construct
.his own highway, must pay heavy taxes
and is subjected to increasing government-
al supervision and regulation. He urged a
popular understanding of the fact that
rail transportation is more important than
water transportation, expressing the be-
lief that when the interdependence of the
railways and the people is understood, the
people will be as reluctant to place obsta-
cles in the way of railway improvement
as they would be to oppose the improve-
ment of the waterways.
Car Shortage.
late Epressing the belief that "there is
danger that legislation intended to regu-
late railways may prove to be an obstacle
to their extension and development, and
may tend to make worse, instead of bet-
ter, the conditions sought to be remedied,"
Mr. Finley cited as an illustration, legis-
lation proposing to impose penalties for
failure to supply cars or to perform other
services. without regard to whether such
failure is the result of willful negligence.
He pointed ott that the present demand
for cars is beyond the capacity of the
railways and the car builders to supply,
and that the imposition of car service
penalties would compel discrimination in
favor of shipments wholly within the bor-
ders of the State imposing the penalty.
"It must be apparent." sano he, "that the
inevitable result of this will be to bring
about a competition of greed and rivalry
between the States to see which can im-
pose the heaviest penalties and secure the
largest supply of cars, and the most
prompt service. and that every penalty
imposed for failure to do the impossible
must reduce the ability of the road to se-
cure more cars and other needed better-

Carrier and Public.
"It has become popular," he concludes,
"to discredit the purposes of therailroad
manager. Whenever he announces a pol-
icy intended to improve the relation be-
tween the carrier and the public and
founded upon broad and just principles.
there are those who question his sincerity.
An effort is made to make of him a thing
apart from the good and patriotic men
of the community. I appeal against such
a sentiment to the sense of right and jus-

tiee of the American people. We are striv-
ing to improve conditions and to perform
our public duties, must be admitted to
your confidence and upheld by your en-
couragement. The task at best is hard.
The conditions that surround us are most
trying. We can only succeed if the sin-
cerity and honesty of our purposes are
recognized by the people and we are up-
held by their generous favor and co-opera-
tion."
The address of President Finley was the
feature of the dinner.
An attendance of 400 representative cit-
izens, a number of prominent railroad

men, and a large representation from the
Seed Crusher's Association of Georgia
made the occasion of more than usual in-
terest Besides President Finley, the
speakers were: President James A. Ay-
cock, of the Seed Crushers' Association, on
The Cotton Oil Industry, the retiring and
incoming presidents of the chamber of
commerce.
Among those present were Gov. J. M.
Terrell, president; J. F. Hanson, of the
Central of Georgia, railroad; C. A. Weck-
ersham, president of the Atlanta and West
Point railroad, and other prominent ril-
road officials.

ments. It must also be apparent that
such a policy is in direct violation of the
common law rule forbidding discrimination,
which has been incorporated in the fede-
ral and State statutes. It compels dis-
crimination in favor of transportation
wholly within the State imposing the
heaviest penalty against other States and
against interstate traffic."
Obligation of Shipper.
After referring to the radical difference
between the obligation upon the shipper to
pay demurrage charges when he withholds
from its proper use property which does
not belong to him, and the proposition to
penalize a railroad for failure to perform
services beyond its ability, Mr. Finley
said:
"In this matter and others which it is
proposed to regulate by legislation, it is
for the best interests of all concerned that
the relations between the railway and
those buying transportation from it,
should conform to the well-established
business rules that govern commercial
transactions of all kinds. There seems
to be an idea in the minds of some that
the business of transportation by rail is
so different from all other forms of hu-
man activity, and that the railday cor-
pcrtaion is so different from all other busi-
*-ess concerns, that they should be hedged
about with restrictions, which would be
recognized as being fatal to the success of
an individual or corporation engaged in
any other business. A railway corporation
differs from other corporations generally
in that it requires a larger amount of
capital for the creation and operation of
its plant than is need in most other lines
of business. Its capital can only be se-
rored if those seeking investment can be
reasonably sure of a fair return, and its
business can only be conducted success-
fully, and its facilities expanded if its in-
come can be kept up to the point necessary
to sustain its credit and enable it to se-
cure new capital when required for these
purposes.
Solving the Problem.
"The transportation problem cannot be
solved in prejudice or passion or in any
misunderstanding of the conditions that
surround it. Its just solution calls for
moderation and justice on the part of the
people and a full understanding and co-
operation between our State and national
government and the railroads. In such an
effort to work out successfully the prob-
lem. which is the great business and gov-
ernmental problem of the times and which
can only be solved on principles of con-
struction and not destruction, and in full
recognition of the high and just purposes
on both sides, may God speed the rail-
roads, and the people of the great State
of Georgia.

A EW INDUSTRY FOR GEORGIA

Rich China Clay Deposits Are Found by
Geologist -
Atlanta, March 18.-There is an oppor-
tunity which confronts Georgia to become
a producer of medium and even the finest
grades of china made from its own clays.
A careful investigation is now being
made of the white clay belt which extends
entirely across the State from Augusta
on the east to Columbus on the west, with
Macon about its center. This work is
being done by the State Geological De-
partment. It has been placed especially
in the hands of Assistant Geologist Otto
Veach, who is devoting all of his time to
* this particular work.
Already something like 30,000 tons of
kaolin are being shippen annually from
Georgia to other States, most of which
is being used by the Northern paper
manufacturers as a filler.
A large quantity of this kaolin, how-
ever, is shipped to Ohio and New Jersey
potteries, where some of the finest grades
of table china are manufactured. Ohio
is the greatest pottery center in the
United States, and yet not one pound of
white clay has been found there.
The Georgia Geological Department be-
lieves that this industry can be built up
right here at home-that we can estab-
lish successful potteries for the manufac-
ture of all grades of china, even approach-
ing the finest, practically right at the site
of the mines. The work of the depart-
ment is being done with this hope and
this end in view.
First Pottery in Augusta.
Already in Augusta there has been es-
tablished a small pottery for the purpose
of demonstrating that porcelain and china-
ware can be made from these Georgia
clays.
This small plant was built by Augusta
capitalists last fall, and is now in opera-
tion for the purpose for which it was in-
tended, that solely of demonstration. In
this pottery some splendid grades of china-
ware have already been manufactured, and
it has been shown beyond doubt that the
Georgia clays can be made to serve this
purpose.
There are no other potteries in the State
engaged in the work of making high grades
of porcelain or china-ware. There are two
Georgia companies which use this kaolin
to some extent in making fire brick, but
outside of this, their only other product of
importance is terra cotta sewer pipe. This
covers the entire manufacture in Georgia,
With tin eiaption of a few small potteies

scattered over the State, which practically
make nothing else except jugs for the
whisky trade. The most important de-
posits yet discovered and opened up for
commercial mining are located at Dry
Branch, nine miles southeast of Macon, in
Twiggs County, and at Hepzibah, in Rich-
mond County.
These are the principal sources of
Georgia kaolin at present, though Mr.
Veatch states that it may be found in
many places within the belt across the
State already described.
Why there should not be an extension
of the manufacturing industry right here
at home it is difficult to see. Doubtless
it will come, however, within a short time.
Source of Kaolin.
In a recent article on the subject of
kaolin mining in Georgia, published in the
Engineering and Mining Journal, Mr.
Veatch says. among other things:
"The best exposures of kaolin are at
Dry Branch, nine miles southeast of Ma-
con, where mining is carried on. The kao-
lin here is in white to cream-colored mas-
sive beds, which are overlain uncomforta-
bly by a maximum of about 100 feet of
loose tertiary sand and impure clay. The
kaolin is cream, drab or gray color, be-
coming a pure white when dry. It often,
however, contains yellow iron and black
manganese stains along joint places, but
these oxide of iron and manganese have
been carried in solution from the over-
lying red sands and clays and are not
segregated from the kaolin itself.
"The clay in its crude state is very
free from grit, the top and the bottom of
the bed being most likely to be quartzose
and micaceous. Also, curious, isolated
'fingers' of sand about an inch in diameter
and from a few inches to two or three
feet in length, are seen in a number of
places, and are found in a mass of clay in
which no grit whatever can be detected by
the eye or by the sense of touch. The
sand forms, however, a very small per cent.
of the kaolin mass, not more than 4 or 5
per cent., and as low as 45 per cent. are
shown by rational analyses. Thisis re-
markable inasmuch as Florida kaolins are
being mined which contain as high as 75
per cent. of sand.
"The clay varies from very soft, about
the consistency of cheese, to too hard to
be scratched by the finger nail. The soft
clay breaks with a peculiar fan-like or
dendritic fracture, while the hard clay
breaks with a conchoidal or hackly frac-
ture. Tn some localities the kaolin has be-

Such clays break like fint, resist the ac-
tion of weather and have almost no plas-
ticity even when finely ground. Soft and
semi-hard kaolins predominate, however.
Method of Mining.
"The kaolin is mined in open pits. The
overlying strata, or "overburden," is re-
moved by hand labor or by steam shovels.
The overburden varies from nothing to 100
feet or more, but the price received for the
clay does not warrant the removal of a
thickness greater than thirty or forty feet,
since the overburden itself is valueless.
After a face has been exposed and the
overburden stripped off for a few feet from
the face, the clay is mined with broad-
pointed, curved picks and shoveled into
cars. The clay is broken off in flat chunks
one to two feet in length. Blasting with
powder is rarely resorted to, since the
clay is blackened thereby and on account
of the softness and elasticity of the clay
only small quantities are torn off. The
jointing is taken advantage of and large
wooden or iron stakes are driven back from
the face and large masses are forced off.
Drainage is one of the difficulties in kaolin
mining, since the clay bed forms an im-
pervious stratum for the water, which
seeps through the loose overburden of sand.
A small drainage ditch is usually dug on
top of the clay bed a few feet back of the
face to carry off the water which issues
at the contact between the overlying sand
and clay. Water is kept from the pit by
drainage ditches where practicable and by
pumps.
Preparation for the Market.
"The kaolin is hauled from the pit ;n
large chunks to long, open drying sheds,
where it is placed in racks and the air al-
lowed to circulate freely through it. After
a few weeks of drying it is either shipped
in bulk or is crushed into flour and small
chunks and shipped in sacks and wooden
casks.
"The kaolin is shipped largely to North-
ern markets, and is used in the manufac-
ture of paper and pottery. The soft, flour-
like kaolins are most suitable in paper
manufacture, where they are mixed with
the wood pulp and act as a filler and give
weight. Some of the lower grades are
shipped to terra cotta and fire-brick manu-
facturers."

Prospectus Florida Immiaration Number of the Weekly Industrial
Record.

The INDUSTRIAL RECORD PUBLISHING COMPANY will issue at some date on or about the
first of May next, a special number, to be entitled "The Florida Immigration Number."
This edition will comprise something like 100 pages, carefully compiled and edited, and will be inter-
estingly illustrated, all illustrations bearing upon the subject in question and designed for the purpose of
attracting to the State of Florida desirable immigrants, both from the domestic immigrant centres and
from foreign countries..
It is the purpose of the Industrial Record Co. to issue an edition of fully 50,000 copies, and to circu-
late it by its regular hannels of circulation, augmented by the industrial departments of various railroads
coming into the South, and through individual and corporate interests throughout Florida which may
have their own individual sources of distribution. It will be mailed to all the newspapers of the country,
with requests for favorable mention, and will be advertised through the leading magazines and farm jour-
nals, to be sent upon request to interested parties who may have their attention thus directed to Florida
and to its advantages from a farming, ommereial and industrial standpoint.
In order to attract the attention of those people who may not read the English language, an epitome
of the entire edition will be printed in several languages, namely: German, Italian, Scandinavian, Rus-
sian, and a many others a we may deem advisable.
The edition, from an editorial and compilation standpoint will cover all subjects setting forth the ad-
vantages of Florida to the capitalist, immigrant and the homeseeker, and will have a lage number of
special articles by well known authorities on the various phases of the immigrant situation. Among these
will be articles by Commissioner Watson, of South Carolina, telling ,of his visits to Europe to get immi-
grants and the establishment of an immigrant line between European points and South Carolina ports;
an article setting forth the means used by other States in the South in inducing immigration-the officials,
amount of money expended, etc.; an article covering the work being done by the railroads in inducing do-
mestic immigration to the Southeastern States. The edition will also contain an article from the Gover-
nor of the State of Florida upon the subject in question; from the Department of Agriculture, giving
detailed and tabulated information as to Florida lands, advantages, opportunities, etc. It will contain
among other things an article on the effort now being made (and we trust will have been accomplished by
the date of the issue) for the estobliehm-nt in Florida of a Department of Immigration, which matter will
come before the approaching Florida Legislature. It will contain articles from the heads of various com-
mercial organizations in Florida, notably from Mr. Bawls, President of the Florida State Board of Trade;
Mr. Fuller, of the Tampa Board of Trade; Capt. Garner, of the Jacksonville Board of Trade; CoL W. P.
Corbett, Chairman of the Immigration Committee of the Jacksonville Board of Trade; Mr. Edwin Brob-
ston, whose efforts are well known in immigration work, and others. It will contain in a concise, paragraph
form "one thousand facts about Florida" for the quick reader who wants to know all about the State be-
fore visiting it. It will set forth the advantages of specific localities for specific purloses; for instance, the
fruit section, the vegetable section, the general farmmg section, and the opportunity es offered by Florida
today for the location here of large maunfactories and smaller industries of all kinds It will contain facts
of interest regarding the various towns and cities of the State, their adaptability and desirability, matters
of transportation, etc. It will deal with every phase of the labor question to attract a airable labor to this
State
All in all, the edition is planned upon a most elaborate scale and is planned to cover every point of
interest that may appeal to the man who has his eye on Florida and to the man who is looking for a
desirable farming, manufacturing or business location in the South.
The editor-in-chief of the Industrial Record, Mr. J. A. Hollomon, will have directorship of all articles
prepared for this special number, and the detail preparation will be in the hands of a staff of competent
writers, already employed for that purpose.
This "Immigration Edition of the Industrial Record" will no doubt mark an epoch in trade journal-
ism in the South, and it is fitting that the Industrial Record should issue an edition of this kind, in view of
the fact that it is the exponent of the leading industrial and commercial organizations of the State, be-
ing the official organ of the Turpentine Operators' Association, the Southeastern Cane Growers' Asso-
cition, endorsed by the Georgia-Florida Sawmill Association, etc.
In preparing the data for this special Immigration Edition, much attention will be given in gather-
ing facts and figures which will prove valuable to the energetic and progressive organizations and private
cities in getting passed by the coming Legislature a bill creating an Immigration Department and in ask-
ing the Legislature to appropriate a liberal fund for carrying on this great work.
The Industrial Record will work hand in glove with the Florida State Board of Trade, and individual
boards of trade of the State, in their efforts to successfully solve the question of increasing the population
of the.8tate with a desirable citizenship.
